I thought Key Lime Pie would be a creamy, yucky, thick mess. I was wrong. It's a sweet and tangy, refreshing taste with a moist biscuit bottom.
As the first dessert of the project I couldn't have chosen a better tasting/ looking one, the 4 hour wait while the pie was setting was a killer but eventually I. had.my.pie!
In the circus, of course you have the clown act where they throw pies back and forth missing the flying messes by a fraction of a centimetre, if I was sitting in the audience and I watched one of those funnily dressed people pick up that beautiful chocolate key lime pie and in slow motion as if time was stopping I would lunge forward dodging dangerous lions and deadly tigers and I would jump in the path of the clown and tell him to hand over that amazing dessert he held in his hands or else.
I had only one major mistake... instead of keeping the lime zest and the condensed milk separated i mixed the together, but luckily my amazing mother bought two cans of condensed milk and i just washed my mistake down the drain :)
Looks kind of like mayo :S
Other than that everything went well...
Tip:
Read the method, it's important next time I might not be as lucky to have to can's of condensed milk on my hands.
Tomorrow I'm going shopping again after I make some Blueberry Cornmeal Muffins for breakfast.
Four down alot more to go ;)

Hey Nat great food today excellent pie and good chicken. We needed more chicken to go around, poor Dad. Oh well he will make it up with the pie. Constructive criticism is as you mentioned read the method and prepare prepare prepare prior to commencing cooking. From the kitchen hand (cleaner and shopper). Sorry for interfering will really try not to from now on. "The Mother".
